(openPR) - LOS ANGELES - Paul Ramirez, a San Antonio, Texas native, is an independent filmmaker and owns an independent production company based in Glendale, California. He has had great success with the release of his first two films Direct-to-DVD. The titles are "Tortillas Again?" (IMDB), a bilingual comedy of errors catered to U.S. Latino audiences about a Latino construction worker that wins the lottery but loses the ticket only to find it in a Tortilla and "For Amor" (IMDB) a bilingual romantic drama catered to U.S. Latino audiences about a Latino businessman that has an extramarital affair while on a business trip to Mexico and has to cope with the repercussions. Both films were released into Blockbuster, NetFlix.com, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Borders Books and Wal-Mart.
He has just completed his latest film entitled "Coca", a bilingual action drama catered to U.S. Latino audiences about a hard working Latino that loses his job of twenty years only to get enticed into trafficking Cocaine from Mexico to the United States with tragic results. This film will be released in the fall of 2008.
His films are low budget but are successful because "Hollywood" is not filling the "Latino Boom" niche. "I am trying to promote positive images of the Latino community and trying to change Latino stereotypes in films by casting Latinos in movies as other than the incidental roles like the Housekeeping staff, the Pool boy and the Gardner as well as preserve our Latino Culture & Traditions in films" states Mr. Ramirez.
He will return to South Texas with his son, who is a writer/director, in the summer of 2008 to film his fourth movie, "The Curse De Oro", a bilingual teen thriller catered to U.S. Latino youth (17-30) audiences about a group of young college guys and girls that go after a family treasure buried long ago by Santa Anna’s Army while retreating back to Mexico from Texas. The treasure hunt is halted when abnormal things begin happening.
Mr. Ramirez's production company has several projects in the works. All catered to U.S. Latino audiences including a television sitcom version of his first film "Tortillas Again?" and a multi-million dollar film about a Latino Superhero.
